COMMENTS

The row lengths sequence is A000142(n), n>=1, (factorials).

The permutations of [1,2,...,n] are ordered in the standard way (lexicographic or numerically increasing). E.g. in Maple as permute(n) list for not too large n (around 10).

FORMULA

a(n,k)= number of cycles of the k-th permutation of [1,2,...,n] in standard (increasing) order.

EXAMPLE

[1];[2,1];[3,2,2,1,1,2];[4,3,3,2,2,3,3,2,2,1,1,2,2,1,3,2,2,1,1,2,2,3,1,2];...

Row n=3: permutations of [1,2,3] in the order [[1, 2, 3], [1, 3, 2], [2, 1, 3], [2, 3, 1], [3, 1, 2], [3, 2, 1]]. Cycle decomposition: [[[1], [2], [3]], [[1], [2, 3]], [[1, 2], [3]], [[1, 2, 3]], [[1, 3, 2]], [[1, 3], [2]]]. Number of cycles: [3,2,2,1,1], the entries of row n=3.
